I am virgin programmer. This will be my very first attempt at building an app. I feel like there is enough information out there that will allow me to do it successfully, but I need major direction to start and I think I can go from there. Can anyone help me or point in the right direction for this? I downloaded the android SDK, ADT, Eclipse thing so that is what I am starting with. I need to develop a login screen so I think I need certain things for passwords. I really don't know. PLEASE HELP. EMAIL REMOVED

What I have tried:

"certain things for passwords"... what certain things are you even talking about? You mean like storing passwords in a database?

Hello Virgin Programmer,

Considering this is your first application and no one is gonna force you to complete before a deadline,

Suggest you to follow these steps

1.Prapare a Requirement Document
2.Learn relavant language from base
3.Learn how to search the internet

Try yourself:)Should workout for you.

Because no one stays as a virgin for long:)

"This will be my very first attempt at building an app."

Then right away I would suggest you use Android Studio instead of Eclipse.

That advice is a bit late - he's been using Eclipse for almost four years by now. :)

My bad. I (once again) failed to look at the origin date. ::slaps forehead::

When we learned to walk, we did not start from walking, we started from crawling, then standing up, balancing, then we get to walk somehow one day, though everyone at a different pace.
Well, you want to develop an app and you claimed you were 'virgin'. then start with some tutorials for beginners, do a lot of simple exercises, slowing and surely you will progress, when you are ready, then take on more difficult projects. It is fine to think big, but it has to start from basic. Get you basic right first, else you will not be able to understand even we try to explain or give you code.
